At Scandia, we are big proponents of doing anything one can in order to improve our life. Even though there are plenty of people who claim this is only possible with big life changes, we believe smaller methods can help as well. For example, we found that the nootropics (otherwise known as smart drugs) industry is filled with many compounds that can be very effective.

Some of the top nootropics are drugs that have very special properties. One of these drugs is called adrafinil, which is a family member of the modafinil class.

Adrafinil – A Primer

Adrafinil is a nootropic compound which helps in improving alertness and concentration. It lies in the category of stimulant which helps fight fatigue, exhaustion, and sleepiness. It is very beneficial for workers engaging in work for prolonged hours or who work in the night shifts. According to a report published by Milgram Callahan and Siwak in 2013, Adrafinil is a very effective smart drug that results in activating behavior but is devoid of side effects of other stimulants in this category.

1. What is Adrafinil:
Taking this medicine may also improve memory, but further studies are needed to confirm this effect. Adrafinil works indirectly through Modafinil. Further studies are needed to determine the proper mechanism of Modafinil but preliminary research suggests that histaminergic signaling may play an important role.

This medicine works in two ways. First, it helps raise the level of neurotransmitter hypocretin which increases concentration, wakefulness, and alertness. Increased dosage of Adrafinil can cause more attention stimulating chemicals in your body and reduces tiredness. Second, this concentration improving medicine facilitate learning ability by stimulating memory and brain attentiveness. This is done through the disintegration of Glutamate acid particles which improves the perceptive and cognitive abilities of the human mind. It should also be remembered that no specific method has yet been defined for the functionality of Adrafinil.

2. Effects and Benefits:
Though this medicine was initially developed for its wakefulness and eugeroic qualities, it has been proven to produce effective cognitive qualities as well. For those who experience life-disrupting fatigue because of insomnia, sleep apnea, and night shift work, Adrafinil can enhance the mental and physical energy desired for a normal routine life. It can also enhance retention, focus, mental clarity, making it a favorite among scholars, researchers, scientists, and students.
It prevents daytime sleepiness and effectively increases both alertness and attentiveness without jitteriness and hyperactivity generally associated with stimulants. As a matter of fact, many users have reported an improved sense of well-being, general enhancement of satisfaction and pleasure, results that may be attributed to Adrafinil’s enhancement of dopamine receptors.
However, these positive effects are only a part of Adrafinil’s benefits.
Besides all the above mentioned effects, this medicine also associated with some of the nootropic effects, including better memory, faster recall and enhanced learning capacity. It has been reported that this medicine improves the ability to maintain focus and concentration and make it faster to do mentally tiresome work over a longer period of time.

3. Dosage:
Dosage recommendations vary according to the need and capacity of an individual, but a scale of 160 to 300 Milligrams is generally accepted as effective and safe. Because of its wakefulness properties, this medicine must be taken in the morning on before having breakfast to allow for a normal complete night’s rest. Effects can generally be felt within a very short timeand the duration of on dose can last for up to 5 to 6 hours.
Taking this medicine on a long term is not good for health as it could affect liver and lung functions. Using it on a cycle, ( few days on, few days off) is recommended. If you are planning to take it for a longer period, it is necessary to have your lung and liver functions properly monitored by a doctor.

4. Side Effects:
The most common symptoms are headaches, high blood pressure, stomach problems, liver, and lung dysfunction. High dosage of Adrafinil can cause a decline in the frequency of urine. It can also render people to hallucination and daydreaming.
Safety information on this medicine is lacking as Modafinil is often used instead for the treatment of excessive daytime sleepiness and narcolepsy. Adrafinil and Modafinil are banned are banned by WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) as a stimulant compound.
In one of the experiments, Adrafinil was shown to enhance the learning and understanding ability of aged beagle dogs. This medicine was used not only to help with working and studying sessions but is also given to the pilots all around the world in a case of emergency. As mentioned above, it is currently banned in the competitive sports due to its stimulant-like effect.

5. Where to Buy this Medicine:
Smart drugs are always high in demand and that is why they are always high in stock. The Adrafinil capsules contain 300 Milligram each and are encapsulated with vegetarian capsule bodies. It can be bought from any pharmacy shop and each bottle contains 30X300 Milligrams capsules.
